Bernardo promoted the PROPOSED item live: with fingerprint PAM on, sudo/login should accept whichever factor comes first instead of pam_fprintd's wait-for-the-reader-then-password. Stock PAM cannot express parallel factors (linux-pam#301), so this packages pam-fprint-grosshack v0.3.0 (pkgs/, pinned from GitLab — the field-standard fprintd fork), source-reviewed before packaging: every failure path (no reader, no prints, fprintd absent/hung, timeout, password typed) returns PAM_AUTHINFO_UNAVAIL and falls through; a typed password is only ferried via PAM_AUTHTOK to the stock `auth sufficient pam_unix.so … try_first_pass` rule — the module never validates passwords itself, so it cannot lock out password login. New option nomarchy.hardware.fingerprint.parallel, default TRUE (the better UX is what opting into fingerprint PAM buys; false = stock sequential). Wiring swaps the modulePath of stock fprintd's rule slot (mkForce) so the sufficient-before-pam_unix ordering is inherited, not recomputed. README + downstream template rows added. Verified: V2 — checks.hardware-toggles extended to three nodes, green: parallel node asserts the grosshack auth line precedes pam_unix in /etc/pam.d/sudo and that with NO reader a correct password still passes sudo while a wrong one fails (the lockout-safety invariant); seqpam node gets stock pam_fprintd and no grosshack; nopam gets neither. flake check + option-docs + template-sot green. V3 pending (HARDWARE-QUEUE, AMD dev box): the real type-or-touch race, fprintd-stopped fallback, hyprlock/greeter after a fingerprint win. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

## 2026-07-12 — parallel fingerprint-or-password (interactive, promoted)
|
||||
- **Task:** Bernardo promoted the PROPOSED "fingerprint or password in
|
||||
parallel" item live; wants it default-on for fingerprint-PAM users.
|
||||
- **Did:** Packaged pam-fprint-grosshack v0.3.0 (pkgs/, source-reviewed
|
||||
first: all failure paths → PAM_AUTHINFO_UNAVAIL, typed password only
|
||||
ferried via AUTHTOK to pam_unix try_first_pass — can't lock out
|
||||
password login). New `nomarchy.hardware.fingerprint.parallel`
|
||||
(default true; false = stock sequential). Wiring swaps stock fprintd's
|
||||
rule modulePath (mkForce) so ordering is inherited. README/template
|
||||
rows; BACKLOG PROPOSED entry closed into ROADMAP ✓.
|
||||
- **Verified:** V2 — checks.hardware-toggles extended to three nodes and
|
||||
green: parallel node asserts grosshack line before pam_unix in
|
||||
/etc/pam.d/sudo AND `sudo -S` with the right password succeeds /
|
||||
wrong password fails with NO reader present (the lockout invariant);
|
||||
seqpam node = stock pam_fprintd, no grosshack; nopam = neither.
|
||||
Package builds (meson needed libpam-wrapper + python3). flake check
|
||||
green.
|
||||
- **Pending:** V3 on the AMD dev box (HARDWARE-QUEUE): the actual
|
||||
type-or-touch race, fprintd-stopped fallback, hyprlock/greeter
|
||||
behavior after a fingerprint win (pthread_cancel'd prompt quirk).
|
||||
- **Next suggestion:** dock + fingerprint V3 batch on hardware, then
|
||||
#89 slice 3.
|
||||
|
||||
## 2026-07-12 — undock blackout rescue (interactive follow-up)
|
||||
- **Task:** Bernardo: "if I turn the laptop screen off and undock, does
|
||||
the panel come back?" Answer had to be tested, not recalled.
